well, yeah.  this gets annoying after a while, though.

case in point: Kai's post in gnu.emacs.help have "manual" score of
5000 now.  it's because I increase it all the time to defeat the
adaptive scoring -- the real score of his posts there as shown by V S
is around 20.

I wish I just could say: "please don't score Kai's posts adaptively".

otherwise I find adaptive scoring extremely useful.  it just doesn't
cope well with people who are worth reading _and_ post a lot _and_
tend to answer a lot of newbie questions. ;)
